to those of you who have done this mission straight away with ease this might sound silly to you but i need help with mission 11 making 3 tech friends. i have invited cybergirl into my circle of friends but i cant find any more people to do with 'tech' please please please help!

heheheh! i had the same problem aslo before.... first, from the beginning you have to take care of people or celebrities who have tech icons like hilary adeluz and i forgot the other names... to make it easier, make the tech women your girlfriend to make it eaiser... hope you'll get it! pls reply to me if you got it.

If you had the foresight to bring three tech celebrities you'll already havethis objective complete. Otherwise, you'll be face with a list of celebritieswithout enough techs to fulfill the requirement. There may be a minimum fame requirement as well.

If you examine the current list of celebrities, you'll notice that the onlynew name is Alicia Burley, the Cybergirl of the Year. Record the names of allof the celebs in the current list, you may need to refer to it.

While its not strictly necessary to do so, you should start by inviting Aliciato a party, any techs who aren't members of your inner circle. Invite herinto your inner circle and satisfy her drives. Bring any techs you invitedinto your inner circle as well. End the party. (If you don't invite her to thefirst party and bring her into the inner circle you risk her vanishing and youlosing a great tech cover.)

After you've had the first party, you'll notice some new names in thecelebrity list. If none of them are techs invite them to a party, max yourcasual relationship with but don't bring them into the inner circle.

Repeat the process of inviting the new names in the celebrity list until thetechs start showing up.

You may experience problems with this objective if you've overextended yourinner circle. In my first playthrough I had about 55 people in my innercircle excluding girlfriends and it took a long time for the techs to shouldup, by which time the list had dwindled to about 45.

On my second and current playthrough the techs showed up immediately after theparty with Alicia, this is with 25 inner circle members.

In an experiment when I didn't invite her to the first party, I had four newnontechs show up while Alicia vanished. The next party inviting the four newcelebrities, one of whom declines resulted in the celebrity being added to thelist.

If your face with a situation where you don't get the techs after two or threeparties, start completely ignoring your inner circle and hold parties with theother celebrities until the size of your inner circle decreases below therequired threshold. You might want to spend some time training yourself orstaff while waiting for the "has left your inner circle" messages.

Be patient the techs will show up eventually. Just don't add anyone besideAlicia or a tech to your inner circle until they do.

Once you have gotten three techs into you're inner circle the "Get 3 TechFriends" will be complete earning a reward of 7 points
